Fine pyrite flotation in an agitated column cell ...

Thus, for separation by flotation to be effective, the fine particle–bubble collision process must be promoted. This process is considered to be analogous to shearinduced flocculation. Thus, in the present work, static mixers have been employed to enhance the collision of fine pyrite particles with air bubbles in a column cell. 2.

After fine grinding, long periods of agitation are often required to dissolve the gold. Goldbearing pyrite concentrates are sometimes roasted and cyanided in separate circuits as at Kerr Addison. Also, high grade goldpyrite flotation concentrates can be shipped to the smelter as is Knob Hill practice.

Arsenopyrite is separated from a mixture with pyrite by contacting the mixture with a sulfitic agent providing HSO3 ions at elevated temperature and pH below about 8 for a period sufficient to impart a selective depression property to the arsenopyrite. On addition of a collector the pyrite is rendered floatable, enabling froth flotation to achieve a concentrate rich in pyrite and tailings ...
